Believe it or not, the bookies don't always get it right. I won a few quid last Friday by taking them on the winning margin at 18-1 when they were expecting Wigan to win by 26-30. Don't we need to get rid of our current coach before we appoint a new one - it's St Helens who are the team without a coach at the moment, not us!

Just a thought. If Ian Millward does come to Wigan what happens to Mike Gregory, I was under the impression that he was still under contract as our head coach and Betts was assistant coach so how can we hire Milly without sacking Mike? Or am I missing something here? :conf:

That's my understanding as well, but many people (journalists, bookies, some fans) tend to ignore any complications or other facts if they get in the way of headline grabbing and making sensationalist remarks. Lots of the criticisms and easy-fixes seem to ignore the fact that things are never black-and-white (such as Whelan sells Wigan therefore we will have to leave JJB - why?), but such things sell newspapers and generate short-lived news stories so they're ideal for the media to spout.

Come on Silver Surfer, you'll only confuse many of our frequent posters if you insist on talking about facts!

Please make sure that future posts contain doom, gloom, innuendo, speculation and rumour. Otherwise this message board could become a white elephant!

They could just call him football manager or something until the Gregory situtaion is sorted out. It shouldn't be too hard.

Incidentally - if Moaning Milly's the bookies favourite to be our next coach, does anyone know which club Long and Gleeson have bet on for him to go to next?

ive heard that IF he did come to wigan he would come as director of rugby, looking after all the rugby

If he did come to JJB would it be worth risking upseting a large section of the crowd. Good record that he had a the other lot but it wasnt as if he took over a struggling team
